Guarded Obsession (Enduring Vendettas, #2)

I swore to hate him.

He vowed to protect me.

I never meant to fall in love.

Alexis
I hated him on sight—the huge, tattooed mafia soldier and cousin to the man who killed my father.
Nick’s uncle destroyed my family, leaving my mother and me alone in a world with no protection…
Until he’s assigned as my bodyguard.
Living in a safehouse with a grumpy gangster who gets under my skin feels like a fate worse than death.
But as I slowly glimpse the man beneath the gruff exterior, I realize Nick isn’t the villain I imagined.
He has honor.
And when he looks at me with those simmering dark eyes, I feel things I never expected.
I vowed not to fall for my bodyguard—but it’s a promise I’m not sure I can keep.

Nick
Guarding the daughter of my rival was not on my bucket list.
Our first meeting was a disaster, and I’m torn between shutting her pretty mouth—or teaching her just how… pleasurable using those full lips can truly be.
She’s everything I can’t have: brilliant, innocent and far too young for me...
But the more time we spend together, the more I realize she’s not the spoiled princess I assumed.
And when our enemies dare to harm her, I’ll stop at nothing to protect what’s mine—and make them pay for every second of her fear.

If you love an enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity romance with a grumpy hero and a feisty, curvy heroine, you’ll devour Alexis and Nick’s story. Settle in and enjoy the world of the Carusos and Rossis. Content information can be found in the beginning of the book and on the author’s website.
